[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7053892, member: 23751"] I brought up sole authored drama to show you that drama can occur without the need for a die roll. In my game, my saying yes the bedpan was there would not be sole authored drama. Since I'm setting myself into your example, I as the DM had not considered a bed pan when creating that event. The player brought the bed pan up and I said yes. That's the two of us jointly creating that drama without a die roll. Whether or not an object is present, or whether an action will be successful or not. I thought the roll was to see if the chamber pot/bed pan was there. See, if I can get a vessel with water from point A to point B without a roll, then I can get a vessel of blood from point A to point B without a roll. Adding a roll because the blood is important to my PC is irritating, not dramatic. The drama comes from the gathering of the blood and the later interaction with my mentor. Will he approve of wizard blood? Will he be angry? Will the chamber pot be a sufficient vessel? Those things are dramatic. [/QUOTE]
